Abstract

A respiratory humidification system (101) for providing heated and humidified respiratory gases to a patient, the system comprising: a liquid flow controller (110) providing a controlled flow of liquid; a heating system (114) including a heating surface configured to receive the controlled flow of liquid and provide humidification to gases passing through the humidification system; one or more temperature sensors measuring a surface temperature of the heating surface; one or more hardware processors (118) providing deterministic control of a humidity level of gases passing through the respiratory system by instructing the liquid flow controller to adjust the controlled flow of liquid received at the heating system and instructing the heating system to adjust the surface temperature of the heating surface, wherein adjusting the surface temperature of the heating surface provides control to produce a known evaporative area; and one or more liquid sensors (117) configured to detect whether the heating surface is wetted in at least one region.
